LONDON (Reuters) - Santander's (SAN.MC) British arm is under investigation for possible investment advice failures and could face a fine or license changes that prevent it from offering such services in future, four industry sources said.
Britain's Financial Services Authority (FSA) said on Wednesday it had referred a major high street bank to its enforcement division, the latest clamp-down on an industry tarnished by mis-selling and interest rate-rigging scandals.
UK banks are already facing bills totaling billions of pounds from a series of misdemeanors, including mis-selling payment protection insurance (PPI), misleading customers about interest rate hedging products and a global interest rate rigging scam.
The FSA declined to name the lender and Santander UK declined to comment on whether it was being investigated.
The financial regulator said the probe, which followed spot checks during a review of the quality of advice available at six major banks and building societies, would only have been ordered if the company in question had a history of poor advice.
Shortly after this investigation was announced, Santander UK said it was reviewing the future of its retail investment advice arm, putting 800 jobs at risk.
It told staff at a scheduled meeting in Birmingham, in the English midlands, it was assessing its bancassurance business "given we can no longer be certain ... whether we will definitely continue providing face-to-face advice."
Santander UK had suspended investment advice in December and pulled its advisers "off the road" for more training because of new rules in Britain aimed at making financial advice more transparent for customers.
It said on Wednesday it would not take on new investment advice until it finds the right model.
The bank said no jobs were currently at risk, but said it had consulted unions and was working with other business areas to ensure that many of those who might be impacted are able to secure roles elsewhere in the group.
Four of its big rivals have already cut 3,500 advisers in the past two years after reviewing their investment advice processes ahead of the introduction of the new rules this year.
The FSA's new retail distribution review (RDR), which kicked in on January 1, aims to ensure advisers are better trained and that fees for financial advice are more transparent.
But banks argue the review contributed to their decisions to pull back from investment advice while they assessed the additional costs. Many now only offer advice to customers with more than 50,000 pounds ($78,300) to invest.
Barclays (BARC.L) cut just over 1,000 jobs, HSBC (HSBA.L) 800 positions, Lloyds (LLOY.L) 1,000 advisory positions and Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS.L) 618. Some banks said jobs were redeployed.
The FSA has conducted a so-called "mystery shopping review" to do spot checks on the industry. The regulator said agents had visited six major lenders 231 times between March and September 2012 to gather evidence about the quality of advice for customers keen to invest a lump sum.
Advisers at the lenders visited gave unsuitable advice 11 percent of the time and did not gather enough information to ensure suitable advice in 15 percent of cases, the FSA said.
"This review shows that customers are not consistently getting the quality of advice on their investments that they should expect when visiting an adviser in a bank or building society," said Clive Adamson, the FSA's director of supervision.

Shaheen helping push constitutional amendmentBy TIM BUCKLAND
New Hampshire Union Leader
May 15. 2014 9:46PM
The U.S. Senate will soon vote on a proposed constitutional amendment backed by U.S. Sen. Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire that would give Congress the power to regulate campaign finances in the wake of Supreme Court decisions that equated corporate campaign spending with free speech.
Senate Majority Harry Reid said Thursday on the Senate floor that the proposed amendment would come up for a vote soon and, shortly later, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman U.S. Sen. Pat Leahy, D-Vt., said the matter will be reviewed June 3 by the full committee.
Shaheen, D-N.H., is one of several Democratic cosponsors of the bill, which is sponsored by U.S. Sen. Tom Udall of New Mexico.
The amendment proposal is in reaction to two Supreme Court rulings that made it easier to contribute third-party money in elections — the Citizens United ruling in 2010, which struck down restrictions on independent political spending by corporations and unions; and the McCutcheon ruling on April 2, which abolished limits on individual political donations.
Supporters hailed the rulings as support of free speech, while detractors bemoaned them as allowing the corrupting influence of money to buy elections.
"With recent Supreme Court decisions striking down common sense limits on campaign spending and contributions, Senator Shaheen believes the American people should have the opportunity to decide whether the Constitution should be amended to allow for reasonable campaign finance regulations," said Elizabeth Kenigsberg, Shaheen's press secretary.
"Make no mistake, the goal of this amendment is to restrict Americans' right to free speech," said Greg Moore, state director of Americans For Prosperity New Hampshire. "The Supreme Court has repeatedly made clear that people have the right to engage in speaking freely to the public and that the government should not have the right to muzzle that speech. Clearly, there are a number of special interests who want to put a gag order on political speech in order to magnify their power, and that's just what this amendment would allow."
"Harry Reid and Washington politicians shouldn't mess with the First Amendment of our Constitution and jeopardize all Americans' freedom of speech rights guaranteed by our nation's Founding Fathers," said Liz Johnson, press secretary for U.S. Sen. Kelly Ayotte, R-N.H.
An amendment to the Constitution must be passed by a two-thirds majority vote in both the Senate and the House and ratified by three-fourths of the states.
Some states have begun their own actions, including New Hampshire, where the House on Thursday passed SB307, which would establish a committee to review constitutional amendments regarding the Supreme Court decisions.
Udall's proposal faces an uphill climb, as Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., has already voiced opposition, according to a statement posted on his website.
"Today's proposal by the Senate Majority Leader represents an all-out assault on the right to free speech, a right which undergirds all others in our democracy," McConnell said in his statement.

…………As expected, I've run into quite a few obstacles while trying to deploy and debug my first plug-in algorithm. I've finally emerged from "DLL Hell" and have successfully deployed the first algorithm I'll be using in this tutorial, but still have fatal errors lurking somewhere in the AlgorithmMetadataBase class which are preventing it from loading at server startup. These types of bugs are apparently quite difficult to pin down, since they occur before a debugger can be attached. As soon as I find a way through this conundrum, I'll finish this series on plug-in algorithms with blog posts introducing the object model, discussing common "gotchas" like this in the deployment process and covering advanced functionality like feature selection and customer parameters. I want to make sure the plug-in I wrote actually works in practice before resuming this mistutorial series, so I may not be able to finish the series until sometime in August. Stay tuned though – barring unforeseen circumstances (I don't want to jinx myself) it will get finished. I've climbed so far up this rickety stairway that I'm not going to let the locked attic I've found at the top deter me indefinitely from finishing the series. The last installments will be on writing custom data mining viewers for SQL Server Data Mining (SSDM), which should be a simpler matter.

Acipenser gueldenstaedtii
|Scope: Global
Language: English

|Acipenser gueldenstaedtii Brandt & Ratzeburg, 1833
|Regional Assessments:

|Red List Category & Criteria:

The species is now very rare in the Black Sea basin where almost all of the species' spawning sites have been lost due to dam construction, except in the lower Danube river where some spawning still exists (see Juvenile Spawning Index) but individuals are rare. The Caspian basin has lost 70% of spawning grounds since the 1950s mainly due to hydroelectric power stations; flow regulation of the Kuban has led to the loss of 140,000 ha and damming of the river Don removed 68,000 ha spawning ground (CITES 2000).
The last natural population still migrates up the Danube and the Rioni (last recorded in Rioni in 1999), where the sturgeons are heavily overfished and poached. The Caspian populations are also under massive pressure from overfishing and loss of spawning habitats. Almost all migrating spawners are poached below the Volgograd dam. The Ural river still has spawning individuals.
It is estimated that the species' wild native population has undergone a massive population decline of over 90% in the past three generations (estimated at 45 years). This is based on the 88.5% decline in global catches of the species in just 15 years despite large levels of stocking (average global catch from 1992-1999 was 1,531.75 tonnes; from 2000-2007 it was 175.37 tonnes), the 92.5% decline in estimated spawning stock biomass in the Volga from 1961-65 to 1998-2000, the 88% decline in the average number of spawners entering the lower Volga from the 1962-75 average to the 1992-2002 average, and the decline in the Juvenile Production Index from Romanian Danube.
This decline is predicted to continue as illegal fishing at sea, and in rivers, for caviar will soon result in the extinction of the remaining natural wild population. In the immediate future, survival can only depend on stocking.
|Previously published Red List assessments:
|Range Description:
|This species is known from the Caspian, Black and Azov Sea basins. Aquaculture has resulted in intentional and accidental introductions throughout Europe.
It is currently only known from the Caspian Sea, where it spawns in the rivers Ural and Volga, and the Black Sea where spawning occurs in the lower Danube and Rioni rivers (last recorded in the Rioni in 1999 (Kolman & Zarkua 2002)). There is no native spawning population remaining in the Sea of Azov, only introduced (stocked) individuals. The species reproduction within the Kura is debated (Vecsei 2001).
|Countries occurrence:
Native:Azerbaijan; Bulgaria; Georgia; Iran, Islamic Republic of; Kazakhstan; Moldova; Romania; Russian Federation; Serbia; Turkey; Turkmenistan; Ukraine
Regionally extinct:Austria; Croatia; Hungary

|The species wild native population has undergone major decline which is currently occurring. But due to the large levels of stocking (particularly Russia and Iran) the exact levels are unknown. According to CITES (2000) Russia released 25 million fingerlings into the Vologa between 1979-80, 35 million between 1981-85, 40.8 million between 1986-90, 42 million between 1991-95 and 28 million 1996-98; Iran released 300,000 fingerlings in 1994 which has risen nearly every year to 960,000 in 1999.
Despite this level of stocking, fisheries catches have fallen, particularly from the early 1990s in the Caspian. According to FAO fisheries statistics (FAO 2009) global catches fell from 4,250 tonnes in 1992 (first available catch data) to 67 tonnes in 2007 (last available catch data), a decline of 98% in 15 years. The average catch from 1992-1999 (8 year period) was 1,531.75 tonnes, whereas the average catch from 2000-2007 (8 year period) was 175.37 tonnes, a decline of 88.5%.
Data from the Caspian Sea (Khodorevskaya et al. 2009) shows similar declines: catches were between 6,000 and 9,000 tonnes per year in the 1960s to a peak of around 14,500 tonnes in the late 1970s early 1980s to less than 1,000 per year from 2000 to 2008. The estimated spawning stock biomass in the Volga has also drastically declined, from 13,200 tonnes (1961-65) and 22,200 tonnes (1966-70) to 1,000 tonnes (1996-97) and 1,000 tonnes (1998-2002). Average number of spawners (1,000 individuals) passing fishery zones to the spawning grounds in the lower Volga (per year) has declined by 88% from the 1962-75 average to the 1992-2002 average.
Romanian catch data (Danube) shows that in 2002, 3,726 kg was caught; in 2003, 1,499 kg; in 2004, 440 kg; and in 2005, 37 kg, showing a 99% decline in just four years (Paraschiv et al. 2006). A Juvenile Production Index (evidence of breeding) for the Danube (Romania) also shows a decline: CPUE was just over 0.7 in 2000, < 0.2 in 2001, 0.3 in 2002, 0 in 2003, < 0.1 in 2004, 0.1 in 2005, 0 in 2006, < 0.05 in 2007 and 0 in 2008. (CPUE = number of Young of the Year - number of < 1 year olds caught - from natural recruitment captured in one netting (Suciu 2008, pers. comm.; Paraschiv et al. 2006; Knight et al. 2010).
|Current Population Trend:
|Additional data:
|Habitat and Ecology:
|Habitat: At sea, shallow coastal and estuarine zones. In freshwaters, in deep parts of large rivers with moderate to swift current. Spawns in strong current (1-1.5 m/s) in large and deep rivers on stone or gravel bottom.
Biology: Anadromous and freshwater populations (freshwater populations existed in the Danube and Volga - both are now extinct). A complicated pattern of spawning migrations includes spring and autumn runs. Individuals migrating in spring enter freshwater just before spawning; they tend to spawn in lower reaches of rivers (320-650 km in the unregulated Ural). Individuals migrating in autumn overwinter in rivers and spawn the following spring further upstream (900-1200 km in the Ural).
Males reproduce for the first time at 8-13 years, females at 10-16. Generation length (average age of parents of current cohort) is estimated to be 15 years under natural circumstances, but due to the impacts this species is facing the generation length ranges from between 12 years in the Caspian Sea to over 20 in the Danube. Females reproduce every 4-6 years and males every 2-3 years in April-June, when the temperature rises above 10°C. Larvae drift on currents; juveniles then move towards shallower habitats, before migrating to the sea during their first summer. They remain at sea until maturity. The Russian Sturgeon feeds on a wide variety of benthic molluscs, crustaceans and small fish.

Source of specimens in commercial trade:
25% Wild
25% Captive bred
50% Other = Stocking - wild brood stock collected from wild. They are used to produce fingerlings which are grown and then released into wild or kept ex-situ and harvested (for caviar/meat).
|Major Threat(s):
Most spawning sites have been lost due to dam construction. The Caspian basin lost 70% of spawning grounds since the 1950s, mainly due to the construction of hydroelectric power stations; the Ural is now the only river in the basin with unregulated flow. Flow regulation of the Kuban River has led to the loss of 140,000 ha, and damming of the river Don has removed 68,000 ha spawning ground. For example, in the Yugoslavian section of the Danube, the annual catch dropped from 14,636 kg in 1983 to 1,636 kg in 1985 (a decline of just under 90%), this is believed to be due to the construction of the Djerdap (Irongate) II dam which was constructed in 1984, leaving no accessible spawning grounds for the species in the upstream reaches and in former Yugoslavia (CITES 2000).
Poaching and illegal fishing, which appears to be increasing, is also a threat to the species. Enforcement of legislation regulating the fishery for the species appear to be lacking. In the Caspian Sea and Sea of Azov the illegal sturgeon catch for all species was evaluated to be 6 to 10 times the legal catch (CITES 2000). Bycatch is also a threat to the species (in both marine and freshwater).
High levels of pollution (from oil and industrial waste), in both the Black and Caspian Sea basins have altered hormonal balance, and increased the number of hermaphroditic fish. Pollution levels are now decreasing since the break up of the Soviet Union (Levin, 1977 in CITES 2000). In 1990, 55,000 sturgeon were found dead on the shore of the Sea of Azov as the result of pollution.
Genetic pollution is also a potential threat as stocks are moved to different locations (e.g. Caspian stocks moved to Sea of Azov).
The Allee affect is also a potential threat to the species.
|Conservation Actions:
Restocking measures are ongoing, however stocks are continuing to decline. In the early 1990s, between 30-55% of the Caspian stock reportedly originated from hatcheries (Barannikova 1995 in CITES 2000, Khodorevskaya et al. 2000). In Russia, between 1991 and 1998, 70 million fry of A. gueldenstaedtii were released in the Volga river and just over 32 million fry into the Sea of Azov.
The species is not fully protected in any range state, though licenses are required in most countries and Iran has banned private sturgeon fisheries. Overall, however, enforcement measures seem to be lacking. Fish lifts and artificial spawning grounds have been introduced to parts of the Caspian region (CITES 2000) without much success. This species was listed on CITES Appendix II in 1998.
Gene bank of live specimens and cryopreservation is ongoing in Russia and Iran.

So my friends who don't run hear that I've completed 6 marathons and usually say, "wow, you must be in really great shape." Or "I could never do that." And those who have run with me know my response is very appropriately, "nah, I just run slow." Sunday morning I stood huddled in my corral waiting for the anthem to kick off a 26.2 journey will thousands of fellow runners in beautiful downtown Phoenix. As I waited in my goodwill warm up throw-aways, I looked behind me curious how many more corrals were behind me. That's when it hit home….I was in the last corral. You see, runners are assigned to a corral based on their estimated finish time. In other words, they want to make sure the slow runners down get trampled by the clock watching, Boston seeking athletes.
As I continued to size my fellow corral 7ers up and down since I know we'd be spending quite some time (5 hours actually) together, I started to get sentimental about how much I enjoy this group. Don't get me wrong, I sincerely admire the stamina and focus it takes to earn a spot in the front corrals. But I personally never felt the joy from watching a clock as my gauge on a meaningful running experience. If you hang out in corral 7 you'll see a group that is competitive, but I suspect we don't strike you as the typical long distance runner. And I strongly suspect most, like me, are there for a much higher purpose that their clock time.
My corral mates are definitely a more 'mature' crowd. Many are recovering from a variety of injuries, some actually quite serious. And quite a few of us are there because we are not particularly good runners, but we want to support a cause ad agreeing to run 26.2 miles is an easy way to show your dedication for a charity and raise funds to support it. Around me are tribute signs for Cancer, MS, Leukemia & Lymphoma. This is my crowd. I run for autism…and more specifically, I run for Autism Speaks. I cannot express how powerful and uniting a marathon is amongst runners. And when you display your passion to support a mission through a sport, well, we runners just can't help but start talking and sharing throughout the 26.2 mile trek.
The upside to having a slow race is you just have more time to spread awareness amongst thousands of new running friends. And when they see the blue puzzle piece on my shirt, many inquire I suspect the charity runners in corral 7 chose there marathons as their distance of choice for another reason beyond fundraising. For this distance does something to your mind, body and spirit that you cannot identify with until you get to mile 24. For some the infamous 'wall' is mile 20. My struggle begins at 24. Mile 24 is my wall, or more appropriately, it is my meltdown. If you are in the autism community, the term 'meltdown' is a familiar term. Often confused with a tantrum to those who are not familiar, an actual meltdown, if you ask any parent, is much more serious.
When I think of what a person with autism must experience mentally when a meltdown strikes, the following comes to mind: last resort, irritated, uncomfortable, stuck, frustrated, help me, I can't, stop. Now please understand that I don't intent to diminish the severity and spectrum of this neurological disorder by comparing it to a race. But in my attempt to understand those Autism Speaks serves, I can only identify with the 'meltdown' that I experience at mile 24. "But there are only 2 miles left. Buck up and just get through it." Yes- that is what I think my logical reaction should be at this point, but when your body is depleted, your mind does not always cooperate. In fact, mine searches for an escape. My escape includes me romanticizing the idea if the medics taking me away on a stretcher, sharing some colorful 4 letter words, and a few times…even tears. (I am thankful that mile 24 has few photographers.
For as many a fellow runner and obviously a fellow fan of Tom Hank's League of their Own, have shared, "There's no crying in running.") Training for and the race itself can be hard on your body, especially as I zone in on the "40 and 49" age category, yet it is essential for my mental health. Before each race, I go in knowing it may be my last. And I always go into it with every intention of being 'meltdown-free'. I suspect my fellow corral 7ers are thinking about the pain felt at their miles 24 as a way to connect to loved ones' or their own challenges-be it fighting cancer, MS or autism. Getting to mile 25…that is the key.
Just as individuals with special needs have their own desired outcomes unique to their abilities, getting to mile 25 is mine. For once that hurdle of mile 24 is behind me, mile 25 is the light at the end of the tunnel. My spirits lift, my posture improves and my pace increases. "I got through Mile 24…I can do this!" I don't know if this is how someone with autism feels when they avoid or maybe just survive a meltdown, but I'd like to believe at the end of it, they come out feeling a tinge of hope. In fact, I imagine the reason my fellow corral 7ers decided to run in Phoenix with me last Sunday was for that one reason…Hope.

The Botanical Discovery of Australia
Many of the European voyages of discovery included naturalists to help in the quest for new resources. From the time of the first European visitors to Australia, our unique plants became a source of great scientific, commercial and horticultural interest. Botanists of these early voyages made collections of plant specimens, and artists illustrated the living plants. Many of these specimens and illustrations survive today as a heritage of the botanical discovery of Australia.
Captain Cook's Voyage - 1770
The famous naturalists of Cook's voyage were Joseph Banks and Daniel Solander. Sydney Parkinson accompanied them as the illustrator. They landed at eleven points on the Eastern Australian coast between April 19 and August 26, making collections and sketches at most of these places. Most landings were brief, of only a few hours or days. The only location involving an extended stay was at Endeavour River where they spent six weeks whilst the Endeavour was being repaired.
The original botanical specimens collected by Banks and Solander are now preserved in the Australian National Herbarium. These specimens are from the same plants used by Parkinson to make his original sketches. Parkinson died before the voyage returned to England. His sketches were used to produce copper engravings originally commissioned by Banks. The Plates were published in 1905 as black/white line illustrations and since 1980 have been released as colour prints known as Banks' Florilegium.
See the coloured illustrations of plants collected on this voyage at the web site of the British Natural History Museum:

The botanist on Flinders' voyage around Australia was Robert Brown. Ferdinand Bauer was the artist who accompanied. The original botanical specimens collected by Brown displayed here are now preserved in the Australian National Herbarium. Brown's handwriting can be seen on the buff-coloured labels. He collected nearly 3,900 specimens, including more than 1,700 species and 140 genera not previously known to science. Affectionately known as the "father of Australian botany", Brown's specimens and Prodromus published in 1810 formed the foundation for George Bentham's Flora Australiensis (1863 - 1878) and the new Flora of Australia since 1981.
These specimens are from the same plants used by Ferdinand Bauer to make his original illustrations. Bauer's illustrations were exceptional in their quality and accurate detail. However they remained in careful custody of the British Museum until a selection of them was first published as a limited edition in 1976.

Hillsong Church Handles Congregation Growth with Blackmagic Design
Founded 30 years ago in Sydney, Australia by Pastors Brian and Bobbie Houston, Hillsong Church has grown rapidly over the years. The church is now comprised of more than a dozen locations in eleven countries across the globe. In Australia alone, more than 30,000 people attend services weekly.
As a Pentecostal mega church affiliated with the Australian Christian Churches, Hillsong aims to advance Gods Church and Kingdom on Earth.
The days of a single preacher speaking from a wooden pulpit with only his voice are gone. 30,000 people each weekend want to feel part of the sermons, services and church family. One of the best ways to build and serve the growing congregations is to establish an amazing broadcast and AV infrastructure in each campus.
Hillsongs requirements include HD broadcasts, live video switching, recording to DVDs and conversion of formats to meet its needs.
The needs of each of our campuses varies, but in basic terms each campus has a control room which takes signals in and feeds them out to every device that needs a signal, explained Luke Irvine, Hillsongs TV Technical Manager. We use several Blackmagic Design products as a cost effective way to manage the signals around our facilities.
Hillsong relies on Blackmagic Designs ATEM 2 M/E Production Switcher, ATEM 2 M/E Broadcast Panel and ATEM 1 M/E Production Switcher for broadcast quality video switching, Teranex 2D Processors for conversions, HyperDeck Studios for SSD recording, Compact Videohub routers, an H.264 pro recorder for converting footage to Internet usable files and various mini converters to tie the various broadcast and AV equipment together.
Out with the Old
Irvine has worked with Australian systems integrator Videocraft over the years to make numerous updates to its campuses, including a state of the art control room built for the new Doody Street campus in Alexandria, Australia.
Hillsong runs two production switchers at each of its campuses. One switcher is for the program director who cuts general program feeds that will record and send video down the IP links. The second switcher is for the IMAG director controlling the feeds for the big screens in the venues.
The churchs Southwest campus needs a production switcher to control three main video screens, while linking with other campuses and displaying content on screens that are 5 meters x 9 meters in size. The Southwest campus had previously used an old PC based switcher with multiple formats (composite/SDI) and only one m/e and one aux bus, which ultimately did not have enough performance or inputs/outputs to keep up with Hillsongs growth.
Today, the Southwest campus uses an ATEM 2 M/E Production Switcher and ATEM 2 M/E Broadcast Panel for creating line cuts around sermons to quickly develop DVDs of each service, while still handling live switching for the on campus projector screens and monitors. They also send different video feeds down an IP link to the other Hillsong campuses in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane in order to link parts of the services from each campus together.
ATEM 2 M/E Production Switcher is a three rack unit, 16 source switcher that accepts 16 10-bit HD/SD-SDI inputs and one HDMI input for a total of 16 simultaneous inputs, each with a frame synchronizer. ATEM 2 M/E Broadcast Panel is a powerful broadcast grade panel that puts all of the necessary the control for the switcher at the Hillsong teams fingertips.
We love the multi view feature, which allows us to handle the large amount of footage coming into our control room between all of our inputs and outputs, said Irvine. On top of that, the Blackmagic Design gear was so cost effective and it much easier for the volunteer crew to operate than what we had previously.
Unusual Video Formats
Blackmagic Designs Teranex 2D Processor is a high end broadcast standards converter processor with high performance Thunderbolt I/O technology capture and playback features. It is a single processor model that offers all conversions in 4:2:2 quality in a single channel. It is one rack unit in size with built in power supply, and features SD/HD and 3 Gb/s SDI, HDMI and analog in and out, eight channel AES/EBU, four channel balanced analog input and output as well as consumer HiFi audio input connections.
At Hillsongs Doody Street location, the team installed two Blackmagic Design Teranex 2D Processors, as well as one at the Brisbane campus.
The Doody Street campus runs in 1080i50, so Luke uses one of the Teranex processors to down convert the 1080i50 signals to HD-SDI. It is then used as a utility framestore or converter for random equipment or requests they receive to plug devices into the system. The other Teranex 2D Processor is used to get random asynchronous sources into the system for switching to screens.
Recording Footage
The HyperDeck Studio, an SSD video recorder featuring dual SSD slots, automatically continues recording onto the next SSD when one disk fills. It records and plays back uncompressed QuickTime, compressed Apple ProRes 422 (HQ) or compressed Avid DNxHD MXF files.
The HyperDecks offer an inexpensive and effective way for us to record footage, said Irvine. It is really nice to know that even if the software chatted on the main system, we still have the recorded files available.
A few of the Hillsong campuses also use the Blackmagic Design H.264 Pro Recorders to record services for archive or online broadcast.
We have so many campuses today and numerous large events to pull off to an extremely high standard, said Irvine. Blackmagic Design has helped us grow technologically to meet the needs of our expanding congregation, without having to sacrifice quality. Blackmagics products are easy to use and understand, cost effective, and high quality and we are very happy with what they allow us to do.

Recently, at 23b, we've been hosting a DIY bicycle repair workshop called The Bike Cantina. Orange County has the best weather in the country, and with summertime in full swing, lots of people are out riding bikes. After visiting several retail bike stores within a few miles of here, I found very few options for cargo racks that looked durable, handsome, and inexpensive. The least sophisticated racks at Wal-mart are $15, and you pretty much get what you pay for.
That's a shame. I'm sure it works fine, but why send another dime to China and Wal-Mart? With so many useful tools at the shop and a plethora of spare parts, our manufacturing capability is only limited by our imaginations and skills. At 23b, $30 of vastly overpriced (but still superior) domestic material, a trip to the stock bins, and an afternoon of mindful tinkering, can result in this one-of-a-kind, handbuilt, stainless steel, TIG welded cargo rack.
|Nice rack!
|No match for an angry Sawzall
Here's Tati assembling the panels for her panniers. In the scrap pile, we found some leftover fiberglass honeycomb sheets which have an amazing strength to weight ratio, high stiffness, and it's surprisingly easy to work with. Band sawed, a few holes drilled along the edges, then bound with zip ties, the crates stiched up nicely.
The crates are now solidly mounted to the rack with an army of zip ties. Another useful iteration of this would allow us to quickly remove the crates, and then be able to quickly and firmly re-mount them to the rack.

Unsold IPhones Piling Up at Leap Wireless

Watching them both play this season, you might think that Gareth Bale's explosive performances place him ahead of Juan Mata, but a look at the Premier League's player profiles will show you that the midfielders are statistically closer than you might expect.
Mata has scored or assisted 23 goals for Chelsea whilst Bale has made 21 for Spurs, making them two of the biggest providers in the league behind Luis Suarez and Robin van Persie.
Whilst Bale's quicker and more aggressive style of play is likely to draw the plaudits, Mata's approach has proven to be just as effective. In fact, the Spaniard's statistics suggest that he has made a bigger impact than the Welshman, having scored 10 goals and assisted 13, whilst Bale has scored 16 and made five.
Obviously there is more to the game than what the statistics suggest, but by looking at a number of sources it is clear to see just how important these players are for their teams, both in the attacking and defensive areas of the pitch.
According to the Premier League's official website, Mata has helped his team keep 10 clean sheets, whilst Bale in a wide position has had a greater influence on his team's back four, making 25 clearances.
EA sports have placed both of them in the top three for their overall performance this season with only Van Persie ahead of them, and Opta list Mata at the top of the shot per goal chart. The statistics website has also stated that Bale is the most improved player this season in terms of reducing his shot to goal ratio.
Mata and Bale have arguably been the most in-form players during the 2012/13 campaign, and the season's statistics suggest both Chelsea and Spurs have heavily relied on their attacking attributes. The impact they have made is also largely comparable despite their different styles of play, but Cheslea's number 10 marginally leads the race as we come towards the end of the season.

Lafayette has defended its right to put a stop to the consumption of marijuana at The Front Tea & Art Shop in Old Town, claiming its recreational pot moratorium does not conflict with state law.
According to a response the city filed in Boulder District Court this week, attorneys for Lafayette wrote that Amendment 64 -- which permits adults 21 and older to possess and use small amounts of marijuana in Colorado -- does not altogether prohibit the city from regulating the use of the drug.
"Plaintiffs want to operate illegally and to have this court prohibit the City from enforcing a properly adopted moratorium which was adopted with the best interests of the citizens of the City in mind," the city stated in its response. "The public interest in no way favors or is benefited by the government being barred from enforcing its laws."
Lafayette's recreational marijuana moratorium, passed by the City Council on Feb. 5, bans until October any recreational marijuana-related business in the city, including those that provide for or allow "the use of marijuana" on site.
The Front, which allowed people to consume their own cannabis inside the Old Town shop, sued the city last month -- claiming it overstepped its authority and attempted to pre-empt state law when it went as far as placing restrictions on the use of pot on private property. The shop's owner, Veronica Carpio, characterized The Front as a "cannabis-friendly" operation, but she said it never sold pot and thus didn't qualify as a marijuana-related business as envisioned by Amendment 64.
The shop has since shut down.
Lafayette countered in this week's filing that it has local land use powers that permit it to regulate businesses in town and that Amendment 64 expressly grants it those powers. It asked the court to deny Carpio's request for a preliminary injunction.
"Plaintiffs have incorrectly alleged that the City's valid use of its police powers constitutes unconstitutional conduct," the response reads. "... Land use is generally a matter of local concern. As a result, Amendment 64 is actually a mixed matter of state and local concern, and since the City's moratorium does not conflict, there is no preemption."
The city said it's merely trying to preserve the "status quo" while the state works on implementing regulations for the nascent recreational marijuana industry.
Lafayette's attorneys went on to argue that Carpio's claim that the moratorium amounts to a takings of her business is not supported by the facts.
"The Front Tea & Art Shop has never been shut down by the City or by the moratorium," the filing reads. "The business sells tea and art, allegedly not marijuana or marijuana products, and currently can sell art and tea regardless of the moratorium."
But Carpio said Wednesday that the city's prohibition on marijuana consumption in her business -- which she complied with -- effectively stigmatized the shop and put her out of business.
"I can still sell coffee and art, but who is going to come in there if they're scared to be seen in there?" she said. "I wasn't selling marijuana, but allowing its use was a good marketing measure to bring more traffic in."
Traffic had slowed to where it was no longer feasible to keep The Front Tea & Art Shop open, Carpio said. She closed the business at the beginning of March.
Her attorney, Thomas West, said the city is not impotent in the face of Amendment 64 but can't use its home-rule powers to overstep state law.
"No one is arguing it can't pass this moratorium, but it's been clearly shown that they've been given certain authority on this issue," he said. "They do have police authority, but it does have limits."
A message left with an attorney with Nathan, Bremer, Dumm & Myers, the Denver firm representing Lafayette, was not returned Wednesday.

Source: Atlas plans to cancel 2014 parade
Parade initially set to roll on Feb. 21
Source: Atlas plans to cancel 2014 parade
Parade initially set to roll on Feb. 21
JEFFERSON PARISH, La. —
The Krewe of Atlas appears to be canceling its 2014 Carnival parade, a source close to the matter confirmed to WDSU mid-Wednesday.
According to the source, the cancellation is due to lack of memberships and funds.
Atlas was originally going to roll on Feb. 23, but was asked to move its parade to Friday, Feb. 21, to fill the slot when Thor canceled its parade last year.
Thor said last year that its krewe couldn't give the parish or the public the quality and style of parade it deserved.

Farmers, agribusiness representatives and others interested in agriculture in the Mid-South should plan on attending the South's largest indoor farm show next month — the 52nd annual Mid-South Farm and Gin Supply Exhibit, is scheduled for Feb. 27-28 at the Memphis Cook Convention Center.
The show — the largest in the event's history — will feature approximately, 400 exhibitors from 36 states and two foreign countries, occupying over 200,000 square feet of exhibit space in the Memphis Cook Convention Center, according to Tim Price, executive vice president of the Southern Cotton Ginners Association and show manager. The event is sponsored by SCGA, with Delta Farm Press as co-sponsor.
An expanded number of farm equipment manufacturers, specialized services, the latest in seed varieties and new technologies in precision farming software and services will be available in the exhibit hall, providing an educational and entertaining experience, Price says.
Visitors who visit all the exhibit areas are eligible for prize giveaways to be awarded each afternoon — a total of $2,000 in attendance prizes will be given away daily. Drawings will be at noon ($500), 2 p.m. ($500), and 4 p.m. ($1,000).
"Our show is well-known as the largest assembly of agricultural products, equipment, and services in the South. Attending the Farm and Gin Show is a spring tradition for thousands of Mid-South farmers, ginners, and others involved in agriculture," Price says. This year's show will offer the latest technology, the newest equipment and the most up-to-date information available to get farmers ready for the 2004 production season, he says.
"We're always working hard to provide something new and different each year. for those who attend the show," says Price. "Because of the larger increased exhibit space available to us, the show will have a large number of new exhibitors and our traditional exhibitors have expanded their exhibit space from previous years.
"Many aspects of the show will be quite different from any show in the past, Price says, and we urge everyone, regardless of how recently they have attended the show, to come and experience this one." And because of the increased size of the show, attendees are advised "to come early, wear comfortable shoes, and spend the day seeing and learning the latest trends and news affecting all of agriculture."
Every year, the show features the increasingly popular Ag-Update Seminars on Friday and Saturday mornings, starting at 8:30.
"This year's Ag Update programs are specifically directed to provide the latest outlook for commodities, discuss current agricultural concerns, and explore new opportunities and information that is critical for agricultural producers and agribusinesses," Price says.
Scheduled speakers for Friday morning are William "Billy" Dunavant, CEO of Dunavant Enterprises in, Memphis; Richard Bell, president and chief executive officer of Riceland Foods Inc., Stuttgart, Ark.; and Woody Anderson, the newly elected chairman of the National Cotton Council.
Dunavant, the world's largest cotton merchant, will offer insight on the domestic and foreign cotton supply and market outlook; Bell will address the market outlook for grain crops in the Mid-South; and Anderson will provide the latest information on agricultural policy and political situations affecting agriculture.
Saturday morning's program will include introductory comments from USDA Undersecretary Bill Hawks and a special panel to address key issues affecting Mid-South agriculture. Gary Adams, National Cotton Council economist, will discuss current and upcoming trade and farm policy issues that are critical to the United States cotton industry. Brian Jennings with the American Coalition for Ethanol will give examples of farmer and farm cooperative successes in ethanol production and the outlook for this industry in the future.
Rounding out the morning's program will be the presentation by Congressmen Chip Pickering, member of the Agriculture and Energy and Commerce committees, on key congressional issues.
A special door prize of $250 will be given away Saturday morning at the conclusion of the Ag Update program. To be eligible to win, you must be present for the 8:30 a.m. beginning of the program.

1. Three separate numbering systems are used in this Report to designate European Union documents.
Numbers in brackets are the Committee's own reference numbers.
Numbers in the form 5467/97 are Council of Ministers reference numbers; this system is also employed by United Kingdom Government Departments and the Vote Office and for the purpose of proceedings in the House.
Numbers preceded by the letters COM or SEC are Commission reference numbers; this style is also employed by the European Parliament.
The absence of both a Council of Ministers and Commission reference number usually indicates that at the time of the Report only an unnumbered Explanatory Memorandum from the responsible Government Department was deposited in the House.
2. Details of the progress of European Union Documents recommended by the Committee for further consideration may be found in the European Union Documents List which is circulated every sitting Monday in the Vote Bundle.
3. The financial data in European Union Documents are normally expressed in euros. Conversions into sterling relating to present and future years included in the Government's Explanatory Memoranda are normally made at the market rate for the last working day of the previous month. For Explanatory Memoranda submitted in April 2002, the conversion rate is Ł1 = €1.6313 (€1 = Ł0.6130). For Explanatory Memoranda submitted in May 2002, the conversion rate is Ł1 = €1.6180 (€1 = Ł0.6188).
4. The following terms and abbreviations are used regularly in Reports from the Committee:
'A' point
An item on the Council Agenda which is not controversial, and needs no discussion. If any Member State objects to an item being taken as an 'A' point, that business is dropped from the agenda. 'B' points are those expected to give rise to debate.
Committee of Permanent Representatives
European Court of Justice
European Coal and Steel Community
Explanatory Memorandum
Official Journal
Regulatory Impact Assessment
Supplementary Explanatory Memorandum
An italic rubric attached to a Motion in the House or European Standing Committee, listing documents relevant to debate on that Motion

Rediscovering Alexander Hamilton, hosted and written by author and journalist Richard Brookhiser, focuses on Hamilton's character. The program looks at particular traits — how they were shaped and how they played out within the new nation that was being created around him. Combining traditional documentary techniques with Brookhiser's exploration of Hamilton's legacy and life, the film takes the viewer to the Caribbean Islands where Hamilton was born, to Yorktown and Wall Street where he fought and worked, and to Harlem and Weehawken, New Jersey, where he lived and died. A Secretary of the Treasury, Supreme Court justice, publishers, pornographers, lawyers, warriors, Calypso singers and urban gang members speak about money, rights, news, war, sex and honor — all the themes that shaped Hamilton's life, resulting in modern capitalist America.
Rediscovering Alexander Hamilton was originally broadcast on 4/11/2011 on PBS.

From Ukrainian Government arsenals comes this very attractive specimen of the WWII Red Army's principal battle rifle. Manufacturer, from its Delta character chamber marking, was Izhevsk Mechanical Plant in the Russian city by that name. It was manufactured in 1930, the year that Stalin's Government established the Gulag, and a strong year for the Nazi Party. This rifle served, of course, in World War II when those two forces met in deadly conflict. This is an earlier hexagonal receiver bolt action rifle. This rifle is Import stamped on its chamber area, and renumbered for its serial number of record. Original numbers match on the receiver and magazine, but those are not to be used as the serial number any longer. Bolt serial number is mismatched, but the Ukrainian stock cartouche indicates Military Armorer acceptance. Construction is entirely blued steel, with white steel bolt. Bolt is pull cocker Mauser type with 90 degree throw; and the firing mechanism will rest with a depressed trigger throw. Stock is beveled two piece Russian hardwood, steel escutcheon slotted for tab style leather sling. Caliber is 7.62x54R, one of the most plentiful and most effective hunting rounds in the world. Magazine is straight line steel box type with swivel floorplate, designed for, but not requiring, 5 round stripper clips. Capacity is 5+1 rounds. Barrel is 29 inch 1:10 right hand 4 groove. Sights are flat steel military rear square notch, calibrated from 100 to 2000 meters; front sight is steel hood protected blade type. The front sight interlocks with bayonet hardware and serves as its lug; original issue but non matching 4 flute 17 inch bayonet is included. Weight empty is 8.8 pounds, with center of gravity at the chamber. Overall length is 48 1/2 inches, with 13 1/4 inch length of pull from the trigger face to the center of the curved steel buttplate. This rifle has been professionally Ukrainian Armorer refinished, with excellent marking preservation. Surface detractions are minimal; we rate it as Excellent Refinish, 90 percent or better. Photos, at any rate, ought to suffice for our distinguished shoppers to judge finish grade for themselves. Bore is Very Good, etchy texture rifling grooves but fully pronounced lands throughout. Chamber and mechanism are bright, clean, and excellent. We're offering this attractive, serviceable, collectable World War II Soviet 91/30 for only $ 189.00. Definitely C&R Eligible.

Waste cooking oil can clog drains and sewers, ruin septic tanks and pollute the environment if dumped in landfills. Storing waste oil and grease can be a health risk and potential fire hazard.
One solution is converting waste cooking oil into biodiesel, a vegetable oil- or animal fat-based fuel that can be used as a sustainable replacement for petroleum-based diesel. On Oct. 5, more than 50 representatives of the service industry, higher education and government will participate in a free workshop at Rochester Institute of Technology that will explain the technology involved in the process, as well as the potential environmental and economic benefits.
The event, which starts at 9 a.m. at RIT, is sponsored by the New York State Pollution Prevention Institute and Monroe County. The workshop will include presentations and demonstrations at RIT and a tour of the Monroe County EcoPark, 10 Avion Drive, Rochester, where waste cooking oil is collected from the community and processed into biodiesel to run service vehicles and maintenance equipment such as lawnmowers.

New York, NY (PRWEB) November 18, 2012
Researchers at Mount Sinai School of Medicine have validated new genetic links for sagittal craniosynostosis, a common birth defect in which the bones that form the sides and top of the skull, fuse prematurely. The genome-wide association (GWA) study and replication, published online November 18th in the journal Nature Genetics, provides the first strong evidence of genetic variants contributing to non-syndromic sagittal craniosynostosis.
Craniosynostosis is one of the ten most common birth defects, occurring in about 1 out of every 2,500 live births. The sagittal form of craniosynostosis, which impedes growth of the skull so that the shape becomes elongated, occurs in about half the cases, or 1 in 5,000 live births. Unless it is treated surgically to release pressure on the brain within the first year of life, it interferes with brain growth causing neurologic deficits. Non-syndromic sagittal craniosynostosis is not associated with other abnormalities.
Until now, efforts to improve the health outcomes of infants born with sagittal craniosynostosis have been limited to surgery performed by neurosurgical and plastic surgery teams. But researchers have been focusing on the contribution of genetics, as well as environmental triggers.
To investigate the genetic associations, the International Craniosynostosis Consortium studied 130 trios (the affected child and both parents). "Very strong associations for genetic markers near the BMP2 [bone morphogenetic protein] gene on chromosome 7 and also within the BBS9 [Bardet-Biedel syndrome 9] gene on chromosome 20 were found, and we replicated it with 172 cases and 548 controls" said Ethylin Wang Jabs, MD, PhD, Professor of Genetics and Genomic Sciences, Developmental and Regenerative Biology, and Pediatrics at Mount Sinai School of Medicine. "This association suggests that individuals carrying these genetic markers may have more than a four-fold risk of having sagittal craniosynostosis," added Inga Peter, PhD, Associate Professor of Genetics and Genomic Sciences. "To find so much power, this is a big breakthrough."
The findings open the door to more genetic research. "Investigators will pursue sequencing studies, perhaps finding other loci and genes of interest," Dr. Jabs added.
Other Mount Sinai coauthors include Monica Erazo, Xiaoqian Ye, Edmond Ainehsazan, Lisong Shi, and Peter J. Taub.
The National Institutes of Health and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention supported this research. Genotyping was performed at the Center for Inherited Disease Research at the National Institutes of Health. Participants were recruited and evaluated through the collaborative effort of the International Craniosynostosis Consortium.
One of the first of its kind in the New York area, Mount Sinai's Congenital Anomalies and Craniofacial Program led by Dr. Jabs has been at the forefront of genetics and clinical research in congenital abnormalities, especially those of the head, neck, and limbs. Patients are seen by clinical geneticists that are experts in dysmorphology as well as by the Craniofacial and Cleft Clinic with a multidisciplinary team of geneticists, pediatricians, speech therapists, dentists, otolaryngologists, plastic surgery, maxillofacial surgeons, neurosurgery, and ophthalmologists, co-directed by Drs. Lester Silver and Peter Taub. The research focus of Dr. Jabs' laboratory at Mount Sinai has been to increase our understanding of the molecular basis of human malformation disorders and to develop new preventive and therapeutic interventions.

It's funny that we should come across Holographic Hammer's concept renderings of a reworked Buell Firebolt XB12R at the end of the year, because the work is perhaps the most intriguing we have seen in 2013.
More of cult classic than big hit, the Buell Firebolt XB12R was never honestly considered an appealing machine in terms of design and function, though the two-wheeler has found a special place in the hearts of Buellisti around the world.
Featuring the typical
gimmicks innovations of Erik Buell's tenure at Harley-Davidson, things like the Firebolt's in-frame fuel tank and underslung exhaust create some interesting freedoms for designers to work with visually.
While many Buell customs have come across our desk, we think the work done by Holographic Hammer, the work of love by BMW Motorrad designer Sylvain Berneron, is the only one to really embrace the opportunity that Buell's create.

Studying is likely to bring a number of changes to your life. Hopefully it should be enjoyable and interesting, but it can also be challenging – especially if you're also living with a mental health problem. You might face challenges such as:
Coping with new challenges can have an impact on your mental health, but there are lots of things that you can do to make your time as a student easier and more enjoyable.
The tutors who I chose to open up to were supportive. It was as a result of asking for help that I realised that with a few adjustments I would be able to finish my course, and nobody thought any less of me.
Students are also at somewhat higher risk of developing mental health problems. This could be because of:
